I went to London today to do interviews with several national TV Stations, and the national press and I also visited Number 10. Very posh! I met Larry, the Downing Street cat. THAT was an honour.

Black to move and gain a large advantage. Honestly don't know that I've seen an idea like this before.

Congratulations to Nikolas Theodorou on winning the London Super Rapidplay & the £10,000 top prize after beating Nodirbek Abdusattorov in the final round! chess.com/events/2025-xt…

I watched @Trisha_Kan work tirelessly for this. Her commitment is unmatched. She surpassed her own record of Ireland's first Women International Master. Massive congratulations, sis! A historic day for Ireland! 🇮🇪 @rtenews, @NewstalkFM, @MidlandsIreland #WGM #IrishChess

Advent Game 5: GM Peter Wells vs Mark Hebden, English Senior Champs. This game stuck in my memory as being particularly fun. Amidst all kinds of chaos, Wells stripped away the black king's defences, before eventually winning the Queen. #chess #englishchess

My best performance so far. I achieved a WGM and an IM norm at @london_chess and my live rating has surpassed my peak rating from 9 years ago. This is a dream come true ❤️

From Selhurst Park to the Emirates! We were delighted to welcome Crystal Palace and Croatian international Borna Sosa to the @xtxmarkets London Chess Classic today, swapping the wing for the chessboard at Arsenal’s home ground. ⚽️♟️ Thank you @AlojzijeJ for organising the visit.

A very special guest at the @xtxmarkets London Chess Classic today! 🎾♟️ @andy_murray made the ceremonial first move on Nodirbek Abdusattorov’s board with Tournament Director @TelegraphChess keeping a close eye.

A lovely stalemate trick caps a fantastic 108-move rearguard action from Supratit!

Gawain Maroroa Jones, the champion of the 2024 @xtxmarkets London Chess Classic, will be back this year to try to defend his title.

Review of the book Think Like a Super-GM authors @MickeyAdamsGM and Philip Hurtado is available on Chessreads #chesspunks #Chess chessreads.com/review/think-l…

Loved chatting with the Guardian’s Lennard Barden, who after 70 years, 14 prime ministers, and nearly 4,000 articles, is still writing his brilliant chess column every week - and is now a officially a record holder. Some lovely memories in this piece theguardian.com/sport/2025/sep…

Congratulations to @MickeyAdamsGM on winning his 9th British Chess Championship! chess.com/events/2025-br…
